Enchanted Care Learning Center in Marysville Celebrates Earth Day

Students created a paper mache Earth, documented the lifecycle of a caterpillar and enjoyed a visitor from the Franklin Park Conservatory

Students at Enchanted Care Learning Center in Marysville celebrated Earth Day by creating and painting 3D models of the planet using paper mache and a variety of other materials. They also documented the life cycle of caterpillars they observed in their classroom, and once metamorphosis took place, they released the butterflies into the environment. To wrap up their Earth Day activities, students had a visitor from the Franklin Park Conservatory, who spoke about butterflies. Enchanted Care Learning Center teaches the importance of community and exploring nature at an early age.
